My day was not exactly ideal. My car was broken into and the thieves took my radio and CDs. They broke my back passenger window to get in. The joke is on them though since the radio didn’t work anyway and most if not all of my CDs can be gotten off my computer. To top this all off I got my ass beaten in monopoly tonight.
Yet oddly enough despite all of this I am actually feeling pretty dam good. Not exactly ecstatic, but better then I have felt in months. This weekend should hopefully help this feeling of goodness since I am going home. I am going to see the Holy Cross play and hopefully at some point meet up with Pam. Other then that I am going to sit around my house and do nothing, but it is better then sitting round here trying to have fun while I am not drinking.
On the not drinking front it has gotten a lot easier to avoid alcohol. After last weeks mix up I decided that I would try and see if I could go for any length of time without drinking. Forrest and I were the only two out of the group who were able to actually stick to this plan. It is a lot easier to avoid drinking if there aren’t people all around getting wasted. On Friday I entertained myself with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and watching other get drunk. On Saturday I watched The Brave Little Toaster with Becca and watched other get drunk. The Brave Little Toaster by the way not exactly as good as I remembered it. Since then it has been easy since no one else is getting drunk and the only reason I get drink is to better interact with other drunks. If I get rink around squares they only ridicule. Either way I figure I am going to go until next weekend until I drink again that will be over two weeks and should be a suitable dry out period. When I do start again I can’t do like I was doing, I cant wake up to that again.
